Global strategy is my business—and cultural insight is my authority.
I am Nancy Barkley, Founder of Honeymoons and Get-A-Ways, and a recognized voice in international hospitality and travel. For over 25 years, I have moved beyond traditional event planning to focus on strategy, cultural intelligence, and business development, helping couples, venues, and global hospitality brands transform travel into unforgettable, purpose-driven experiences.
My work is defined by the seamless alignment of high-level strategy, cultural depth, and meticulous service design. This approach ensures every engagement, from a destination wedding blueprint to a keynote strategy session, is both flawlessly conceived and deeply connected to place.
My career is built on a foundation of real-world success and strategic thought leadership:
I advise hospitality leaders, tourism boards, and private clients on business development, strategic growth, and elevating the guest experience in the destination events space. My counsel is rooted in mitigating cross-cultural risks and maximizing impact.
I share actionable insights on international stages, focusing on purpose-driven entrepreneurship, global market strategy, and the future of destination events. I empower audiences to build meaningful, resilient businesses that succeed across borders.
As a published contributor to leading media outlets including Forbes, The New York Times, CNN, and MSN, I provide expert commentary on global travel, lifestyle, and hospitality trends.
Through my publication, The Culture & Travel Report, I share engaging, insightful stories that explore travel, culture, lifestyle, beauty, wellness, and weddings—inviting readers to see the world with curiosity, style, and a fresh, informed perspective.
When you collaborate with me, you access a rare blend of global experience and strategic foresight:
I don’t just consult—I build strategic connections between people, places, and possibilities.
✨ Open to collaborations with hospitality partners, luxury venues, tourism boards, and media outlets seeking expert strategy and cultural authority.
